The catalytic properties of palladium crystallites obtained from various precursors were studied in the hydrogenation of 2-ethyl-9,10-anthraquinone. The highest yield of H₂O₂ (88%) is achieved on unmodified Pd crystallites obtained from Pd(dba)₂ at 50°C. A sigmoidal relationship between the coherent domain size (CDS) of Pd particles and the content of anthrones, which are by-products of the eAQ transformation, is established. Small Pd clusters, along with the reduction of eAQ carbonyl groups, accelerate predominantly the hydrogenation of the eAQH₂ aromatic rings. The smallest contribution of the side processes is observed for a palladium catalyst with a CDS of 3–5 nm.

在2-乙基-9,10-蒽醌的加氢反应中研究了从各种前体获得的钯微晶的催化性能。在50°C下，从Pd（dba）₂获得的未改性Pd微晶，H ₂ O _2的收率最高（88％）。在Pd粒子的相干畴尺寸（CDS）和蒽酮的含量之间建立了S型关系，蒽酮的含量是eAQ转化的副产物。较小的Pd簇以及eAQ羰基的还原主要促进eAQH ₂芳环的氢化。对于CDS为3–5 nm的钯催化剂，观察到副过程的贡献最小。
